COVID-19 Checklists for Levels 2 and 3

With the rules around social gathering and the need to be vigilant in respect of health and safety, the Institute has been supportive of CHASNZ and other organisations in the development of a set of site checklists under Alert Levels 2 and 3.

They are extremely useful tools for industry in the current climate and we support you being aware of them as they set a very sound industry expectation which should be observed at every site.
